World War 1 100 Years Ago: March 13-20

From The Indianapolis Star, Friday, March 19, 1915: The most authentic moving picture of the European war made since the conflict began is now being shown to large audiences at the Lyceum Theatre, 148 W. Washington St. The motion picture camera makes it possible for the spectator, seated in a comfortable theater chair, to view scenes taken on the firing line that depict the most vivid record of warfare ever made. The photographers faced shot and shell, hunger and disease, and even execution when they obtained the pictures. Among the scenes featured are artillery duels near Louvain and field guns in action near Antwerp. The Indianapolis Star, by special arrangement with the New York Sun, is presenting the motion picture to benefit The Star Summer Mission Fund.
